I have made some changes to the blog in an attempt to restore the "New Post" in the task bar for Skip - and whomever else had it disappear from their blog page.  I am not sure it worked, so some feedback about how you are posting will help.  Skip did win our Scrabble game yesterday - one 97 point play made the difference, (though he did win by over 100 points).  Rematch to follow-

Skip is home from the hospital and doing OK. He can still use thoughts sent to 4520 Kear Rd, Canandaigua NY 14424

Happy Birthday to Jane tomorrow! I have a feeling you'll be celebrating in the hospital.

Hi to all,
Had a great time with Vicki hiking the falls in Catskill and West Springfield. Lost 6 pounds, let's do that every other week. Beautiful leaves and trails.
Happy fall days to all.

Ted and I drove (28 hrs on the road) to see Andy's new digs in SC over the weekend. Greenville seems like a nice area and they were enjoying the 70 degree temps after the hottest summer on record. Took down lots of furniture so both Andy and Gabrielle's places are now fully furnished - and then some. Beautiful leaf views through the Virginia mountains and more through Northern PA - they turned a lot from the time we went down on Friday to being definitely peak today (Monday). Now its off to Mass to leaf view with Sally though the forecast calls for 3 days of rain so I am glad I got to enjoy them today. Mom's this weekend for the shower.

HEY! Somebody needs to start posting out there!
Happy Birthday to Nathan, Andy, and Dylan (belated to all)
News flash - it's raining.
Planning for Mom's birthday - Ben has her on the 3rd, which is a Thu. I will be at a funeral the following weekend if somebody wants to visit. Other than that I have no thoughts because it is so far away in my busy mind.
Get you cards ready, also for Aunt Betty. She turns 90 on Nov 13. I'll publish her address later if I am reminded.
Still raining.
The younger generation must have something going on in their lives...please keep in touch.

Temps in the 80's today. Indian summer? and will Mom take a dip in the pond?

Here's a shout out to Chad and Joanne. Heard you moved into your new home - congrats. Have you had a year as full of MAJOR events as 2011? Hope you can relax and get into a family routine now. Please post here or pass on your address to Gram (the old-fashioned blog.

Mom's cooking spaghetti on Friday for Molly's birthday for any who can make it.

Speaking of Mom, the competition is on. I've been trying to sneak in some swimming and have been signing in, just in case I get the last swim. Well, I went last night at six, but she was in the garden and heard me so she went at 6:30. So I went this morning at 6 (in the dark and the 15 geese that I couldn't see gave me quite a fright). Anyway, she went this evening again. Now I think she may have to win because the temp is really suppose to drop tomorrow night. I tried to give her a run for her money, but she is much stronger willed than I.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO TRACIE - and a poem for you

Yesterday is history
Tomorrow is a mystery
Celebrate today - it belongs to you!

Wednesday, September 7, 2011

Hope everyone is staying high and dry. Greene school closed early and Tracie is pumping and vacuuming out her basement, hoping the electricity stays on so she can stay ahead of the water. Looks like they will have to start building "flood days" into their school calendar.

My mistake. I said Aunt Marion's birthday was on the 5th, it is actually the 9th, so if you didn't get a card out you still have time. She's been enjoying the attention.

Friday, September 2, 2011

Just a thought - Aunt Marion turns 92 on Monday, and would probably enjoy some cards (even a little late). Her address:PO Box 725, Bloomville, NY 13739
